dunno as i ain't looking at the links but gumtree is famous for scams ,,,, as indeed ebay can be - if you are buying privately, bid or send as much money as you are prepared to lose, and you can't rely on paypal to get it back either.

OK, thanks.
Likely that you will be asking more than I will want to pay , as I've been looking at CRC's Garmin Edge 500s that are reduced at the moment.
Can get one for £139.99, which includes discount voucher to be used before Mon 22nd, so I'll understand you asking a realistic price for your 705.
Still interested in 705 though so let me know how much.

I was after one and found a gumtree ad a few months ago.
The email reply was clearly a scam.

First time I looked on gumtree was a bike that had been on ebay a few weeks earlier, it was on gumtree with the ebay description and photo's. The bike which sold for around 5 grand was 1500 quid on Gumtree, it was also now said to be in Italy. I was told someone would be driving very near to my house and if I paid quickly they would have the bike dropped off within the next few days, not that I mentioned anything about where I lived or even what country.
